Feel for Rhys Williams. Young defender, slow, and he's got no cover on the counter, with 50 yards of space behind him. We're very unbalanced.

 

Cavani at fault there. Rare blip in his United career so far.

 

Crazy that “there’s nothing wrong with that” tackle.

 

That was a cool free kick

 

Fabinho clearly knees Cavani in the back of the leg and Jenas is saying anything he can to say Cavani went down easily

 

Bruno is inevitable

 

“The referee bought it” fuck me this is one of the most biased commentating appearances I’ve ever heard.

 

Rashford off with an injury is very concerning.

 

Good god that would have been a brilliant goal. Shame it hit the post.

 

Was saying this to someone else last night. At the start of the season, we seemed to have a plan. Sit back and tight, use the fast players to counter. Wasn't great to watch, but it sort of worked. Pretty much what we did last year as well. Since around mid November, we don't see to have even that plan anymore. It's just.... be on the pitch?

 

Liverpool on a terrible skid and Spurs coming up on Thursday. Great.

 

Good win. Liverpool weren’t really that threatening after we scored the third. It should have been more comfortable than that though. The couple of times we made defensive mistakes they managed to capitalise.

 

If I never hear Jenas commentate on a United match again it will be too soon. “Controversial” foul for the winner apparently.

 

man u's turnaround of late has been wild

remember when ole was on the hot seat, like, two months ago?

 

Do the entire league a favour please.

 

Robertson trying to scream into Greenwood’s ear while Greenwood slots the ball home is a beautiful beautiful sight. Shame the referee didn’t book him like he should have.

 

Of course they will, but I like to pretend.

Atalanta would be my first choice, then Napoli and then Roma.

Isnt this exactly the kind of match you lose aha?

 

Yep, which is why we’re the doctor to cure their woes lol

 

I have to say I felt a little for the young Liverpool centre back, Williams. He was so far out of his depth it was hard to believe. I’ve no idea how highly rated he is but throwing him in at the deep end today wasn’t the best idea. He seems incredibly slow, even compared to Maguire.

 

If Thierry Small comes on for us today, he'll become our youngest ever player. Apparently he's demanded first team football already and he's only 16 lol

 

Posted the same earlier. Was surprised to see him start again today, and he had no cover in front, behind or to his right for much of the game. Poor all round from Klopp.

 

At least espn+ is a better value than peacock, like way better.

 

Yeah he was hung out to dry today. TAA had no interest in helping him defensively either.

 

We are desperate for a left back so if he wants first team football he can hop on the coach with us at the end of the game.

The state of our defence tonight is shocking. Very inexperienced against a player like James Rodriguez and a former Sheff United youngster in the the form of his life. Frightening.

From bits I’ve seen in the press today, the players want Thomson to get the job permanently so this is their chance to make a case for him.
